Let me introduce myself. My name is Ian Trimble. I was an ESL teacher for 3 years. I did my stint in Phnom Penh, Costa Rica, and Thailand. Now I am in the USA, going to school and am working on a project. The project is called whytheyteach . The website is located at http://whytheyteach.squarespace.com . I already have a couple of interviews on the website for you to preview. The goal of the website is to encourage new people to teaching ESL abroad. The long term goals will include interactive portals for new and inexperienced teachers to share ideas. So if you are interested, reply to this thread or PM me.
